RA!

Adoption is like putting together a giant puzzle; you need all your paperwork to correspond like puzzle pieces. Now imagine that you have to put together a giant puzzle while being timed. Yes, that's how I feel right now. *Deep breath* it will all be worth it!

We received our RA (referral acceptance) yesterday! So our next wait will be for our TA (travel acceptance.) We can't receive our TA without our updated USCIS paperwork (I'm pretty sure.) We'll probably get our updated Home Study in the mail this week... so then I will submit our I-800a supplement 3 (jargon adoptive families understand :))

Here are the referral photos that we received in February!

Isn't she adorable? Our precious baby girl will be 11 months old on the 4th! We're hoping to receive some updated photos of her soon (the photos we have are a few months old.)

In order to bring our sweet Ella home, we still need to raise funds! If you love coffee and precious little ones, please check out our coffee fundraiser!
